Trownies, New Summer Fun Dessert.

At beginning of the year, usually there are many 'food articles' talking about the new food trends. I find it's very interesting to learn about the trend. Agree?

When it comes to a new dessert menu, my curiosity raises fast.
So when Bakerzin contacted me and telling about their new product; Trownies ...hmmm... I started to guess, what it looks like, how is the flavor, the texture, the color, etc.
At the beginning, judging from the name I thought it's a combination between truffle and brownies. Haha... wrong!

So... these are the Trownies; the Tart-Brownies, one of the Bakerzin Summer Fun Dessert Series. Yup...we are in the middle of hot sunny weather here in Jakarta.
Inspired from the fun, fresh and summer adventures, the trownies have a clever combination of crunchy tart base, filled with certain flavor of soft brownies, topped by delicious cream cheese frosting. Not finished yet; nuts, chocolate chips, fruits or little macaroon providing additional color, flavor and texture to this pretty dessert. You will find the nice harmony of flavor and texture in every bite.

Hhmmm... I found out, trownies is one of the products mentioned in the new dessert trend in 2014!
Delicious miniature treats that generally hold a sweet filling, and also it has layers of dessert elements.

The good news is the Trownies not only come in one flavor, not two... but five variants! Awesome.
Lets take a look one by one:

Choco Nutty Trownies

Perfect combination for all the chocolate lovers;
chocolate nutty tart base, soft chocolate brownies with chocolate glaze on the top of it, swirl chocolate cream cheese on the top of the brownies and showered by chocolate chips and crunchy crumble. Clever combination. Perfect combination.

Pistachio Trownies

It's nice to see this colorful pretty dessert on a summer day.
The crunchy tart base filled with green soft pistachio brownies, decorated nicely with pistachio cream cheese. Three different colors of little macaroons and fresh blueberry add the color and texture richer for the dessert. Yummy!

Coffee Almond Trownies

This is the answer for all coffee lovers' prayers. Delicious dessert with nice flavor combined from all the element ingredients. Crunchy tart base combined with coffee flavor brownies and topped with soft caramel cream cheese butter frosting. Walnuts, cocoa powder and chocolate milk triangle are decorated on the top, giving more flavors and textures. Delicious.

Red Velvet Trownies

If you like Red Velvet Cake, then you should try this trownies. It gives you extra texture, more than the Red Velvet Cake. The pretty Red tart base covers the soft red velvet brownies and soft vanilla cream cheese completing the dessert. And...a white chocolate stick and a pretty little red velvet macaroon are bonus. Ooohhh...

Carabe Citrus Trownies

A combination between chocolate and orange is quite popular in the dessert world.
Here you'll find a surprising & refreshing flavor from the orange confit that lay down, hiding in between dark chocolate brownies and the chocolate cream cheese frosting. White chocolate sticks and a mini chocolate macaroon make this dessert even richer in flavor and texture.
The crunchy chocolate base holds all the dessert elements, wrap them all nicely.
